It is in the body, and it happens both with the keyboard shortcuts and with the pulldown Edit menu selections. Of course, just now I tried copying and pasting within this reply and it worked fine. OK, I see how this works now. If I discard the first reply, that seems to also clear out anything I have copied at the same time. So when I then start a new reply and try to paste in what I copied before, there is nothing to copy anymore. But if I leave the first reply open while starting the second reply, I can copy and paste just fine. Odd behavior, but now that I know how it works I guess I can work with it. Thank you, -- Kevin B.
